As strong environmental leaders, approximately 100 Leamington District Secondary School students joined millions globally by holding a School Strike for Climate on Friday, Sept. 27 from 10:15-11:30 at the school on Oak Street. Banners and signs and chants were created for the event.

LDSS participates in School Strike for Climate

By Sheila McBrayne

Leamington District Secondary School joined the global Strike for Climate movement by organizing a school strike.

The strike held in front of LDSS started at 10:15 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 27 with approximately 100 students and local residents participating.

“We are protesting to demand action. Since we can’t vote — we’re not old enough — in order to make change we held the strike so our voices can be heard,” said Grade 10 Minister of Enviroment (Student Parliament)

Krystal Robinson.

The Climate Strike was led by Student Parliament Prime Minister and Eco Team member Fumi Malott.

The LDSS EcoTeam is planning to organize a Climate Summit with guest speakers. A date has not been set.

Robinson stated that each individual can make a difference. “It can be as easy as using less single use plastics, reducing waste and recycling properly,” stated Robinson.

In attendance to show support was Leamington Councillor Tim Wilkinson, Greater Windsor District School Board Trustee Aimee

Omstead, federal election candidate Katie Omstead, Katie Stammler of ERCA and several community members.

Although unable to attend, Mayor Hilda MacDonald sent a message that was read aloud: “Wishing you a successful day today. I wish I could have been there.

For my generation.... in our haste for convenience, we forgot the environment.”

“Having the support of leaders of all levels of government is crucial in solving the climate crisis,” stated Malott.

Premiere issue of Southpoint Living Southpoint Publishing held a launch party on Thursday, September 26 at Kings Bake Shop in Kingsville to introduce Southpoint Living, a new lifestyle magazine for Kingsville, Leamington, Wheatley and surrounding area. Southpoint Living will be published twice per year (fall/winter and spring/ summer) and the debut issue is currently being distributed to various locations around the community.

Candidates Night highlights election issues

By Sheila McBrayne

LEAMINGTON – The five candidates vying for the Member of Parliament seat for Chatham-Kent-Leamington attended an all candidates night at Leamington District Secondary School on Wednesday, Sept. 25.

Organized by the Grade 10 Civics class, the candidates were allowed an introduction and then asked five prepared questions from the students. Climate change, shoreline erosion and flooding, greenhouse gas emissions and blue-green algae blooms in Lake Erie were among the common questions of the evening.

Liberal candidate Katie Omstead touted her party’s campaign pledge to reduce emissions to net-zero by 2050 and to cut corporate taxes on businesses reducing their emissions to net-zero. “Homes, roads, lands – millions and millions in damage… We need to talk about prevention, not what to do when… We need a champion,” she said.

Conservative candidate Dave Epp stated the Conservatives are putting faith in technology to develop the green technology. He reminded potential voters that any solution to climate change, shoreline erosion and other environmental issues must maintain jurisdiction. In most cases, the federal government comes in after municipal and provincial ef-

forts. “We’re all in this to make Chatham-Kent-Leamington a better place,” he stated. He also reminded voters that, “governments don’t have money; governments get money.

The money they spend comes from you.”

Green Party candidate Mark Vercouteren stated his party would enforce no more fracking, no more pipelines, and no more oil subsidies. “Climate change is getting serious. We do believe in making Canada a better place for our kids and grandkids,” he stated.

The People’s Party candidate John Balagtas stated his party “would not raise taxes to combat a fake global warming crisis.” He stated that global warming theorists are using old science theories and are lying to the people.

Tony Walsh of the NDP talked about combating a climate crisis. His party is pledging carbon-free emissions by 2030 and fully electric autos. “This didn’t just happen, it’s been coming for a while,” he stated. In talking about previous governments, Walsh stated, “only a difference choice will give us a different result.”

Other prepared questions included how to lower the child poverty rate in this area and how to help farmers and agricultural producers who had trouble planting this spring.

After the prepared questions were answered, questions from the crowd were selected. The first question was how to en-

sure gender equality.

Walsh stated that the NDP took their time naming candidates to make sure that the party had more equal representation.

The People’s Party candidate Balagtas stated “we hire people based on their capability to do the job.”

Omstead pointed out that she was the only female candidate of the five – “women are still not there (equality) in politics.” She also pointed out Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s first ever gender-balanced cabinet.

“There’s no room for discrimination,” said Conservative candidate Epp. The final question of the evening from the audience was how each party planned to regulate immigration, but still welcome new immigrants to Canada. There was a wide range of support and ideas on immigration, from only allowing skilled immigrants as Balagtas stated to the other end of the spectrum of “we need more immigrants in our economy,” as stated by Walsh.

Other candidate meetings are scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 9 at Cardinal Carter Catholic Secondary School at 12:30 p.m. and the Leamington Chamber will have a Candidates Night on Tuesday, Oct. 15 at 6:30 p.m. at the Roma Club.

Southpoint Kite Festival this weekend

By Bryan Jessop

LEAMINGTON – The name, time, date and location have changed, but the spirit will remain the same for the second installment of a unique community event.

The free-admission Southpoint International Kite Festival will take to the skies of the Leamington Soccer Complex at Mersea Road 2 and Mersea Road 12 on both Saturday, Oct. 5 and Sunday, Oct. 6 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event, which will also include a Night Flight from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, was known as the Wheatley Wind Festival for its first installment in early June of 2018.

“There were some limitations with the baseball diamonds and fencing,” explained the festival’s founder and chairperson George Paisiovich of last year’s location near Wheatley Area Arena. “There was kind of a bowl effect at the Wheatley location that caused the wind to dance around a lot.”

The multi-field soccer complex in Leamington, he explained, offers a flatter, 54-acre space with fewer obstructions — details that will be seen as beneficial to demonstrators bringing along kites valued at between $5,000 and $8,000. One of the larger fields will be designated for large

inflatables and another for ongoing demonstrations from two U.S.-based stunt flying groups while others will be set up for families, single-line users and other formats.

“It’ll allow for a broad spectrum of kiting that a lot of people don’t know about,” Paisiovich explained. “A lot more space means a wider range of kites. Broadening the range of people who can participate is really important to us.”

The festival is being organized by a committee of about a dozen volunteers led by Paisiovich, about half of whom were involved in preparing last year’s Wheatley Wind Festival.

The event’s founder explained that the gathering could take between three to five years to establish itself and that he would one day like to see it established as a marquee event in Southwestern Ontario. For this year, the committee hopes to see participation from Community Living Essex County and a turnout of the general public reaching into the thousands.

“It’s still a new concept and most people have never been to a kite festival, so I’m not sure how many will attend,” said Paisiovich, who explained that despite the rain, more than 1,000 attended last year’s gathering in Wheatley. “We just like to see the joy on kids’ faces. That’s what it’s all about — the chance to unplug, shut the screen off and get outdoors to enjoy something where everyone’s on a level playing field. It doesn’t matter if you’re a grandparent, a single mother or someone with a disability. Anyone can get involved.”

Kites of several shapes and sizes will be displayed and flown by about 30 kiting experts who are making the journey to Leamington from across Michigan, Ohio, New York State and Southwestern Ontario. On both days, kites will be available to purchase for prices ranging from one and two dollars to more unique and hard-to-find varieties up to about $200.

Paisiovich encourages all visitors to the free event to bring their own kites, whether they be store-bought or homemade. The festival’s primary organizer hopes to create and bring a kite made from a simple pizza box.

“All you really need to make your own is some paper or cardboard, some string and some tape,” he said, noting that some kiters utilize a fishing rod and line.

On Sunday starting at 11 a.m., a bagpiper will begin a dedication ceremony to Canada’s military veterans, first responders and their families, who will be offered free kites while supplies last. Speakers including military/first responder family members will offer presentations as a replica of the kite from the movie “The Kite Runner” will be flown during ceremonies. Also, military/first responder family members will be invited to sign the tail of the 100 foot long ‘Canadian Heroes’ kite before it takes to the sky.

Night flying from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday will include

T-shirt fundraiser supports Migrant Worker Community Program These two Leamington District Secondary School volunteers at the Festival of Guest Nations are showing off a new t-shirt designed as a fundraiser. The Migrant Worker Community Program has designed two t-shirts, both with the same message: ”Working hard to feed your family so we can feed ours.” All proceeds from the sale of the shirts will be used for the program, which provides social, recreational and informational resources to the temporary migrant worker population of Leamington and Kingsville. One shirt has the sugar skull, an important part of Mexican culture, with tomato eyes, a pepper nose, multiple suns for the Sun Parlour, a blossom, pepper leaves, a monarch butterfly, a bee and the parrot for the Caribbean workers. For those uncomfortable wearing the sugar skull, there is the same message in Spanish and English on the word shirt. All have a Maple Leaf on the back with Leamington • Kingsville • Canada. The shirts will be for sale this Friday, October 4 at the Mill Street Market.

Hospital staff preparing for flu season

Erie Shores Health Foundation $25,000 winner From left to right, Erie Shores Health Foundation marketing coordinator Melissa Hunter, Leamington Mayor Hilda MacDonald and ESHF executive director Christine Colautti reveal the $25,000 ‘cheque’ won by Cottam’s Mike Wiltshire Monday, Sept. 30 at the ESHF office at Erie Shores HealthCare in Leamington. MacDonald drew the main prize as an event streamed live on the ESHF’s Facebook page. Dubbed the Almost 50K Giveaway, the fundraiser by the ESHF sold about 1,500 tickets at $60 each or two for $100. The second annual edition of the month-long event raised $15,000, to be used where there is the greatest need for local health care services — possibly for Diagnostic Imaging (DI) equipment. The giveaway began August 2 with the $1,999 early bird draw and then carried on through the month of September. A double winner took home a combined $1,500 while two $500 winners donated their winnings to the ESHF for a sum of $1,000.

LEAMINGTON – Erie Shores HealthCare is asking for the community’s help in reducing the spread of infection as the flu season is expected to be upon us earlier than in previous years.

ESHC Emergency Department staff and physicians have seen a spike in patients presenting with flulike symptoms and cardiac issues earlier than last year.

Typically, a spike in patient volumes is seen in late October.

ESHC is working with the Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) in collaboration with additional hospitals within the region on surge preparedness to ensure there is capacity and flow throughout the system.

“Flu season brings challenges within the hospital as a result of the increased acuity and volumes; however, we are committed to working on internal processes to maintain flow and capacity to ensure the impact to our patients is minimal,” said Kristin Kennedy, VP Patient Services and Chief Nursing

Executive at ESHC. Staff at Erie Shores HealthCare will be stepping up prevention and monitoring during the peak of the season. In addition, the hospital will kick off its Flu Shot Campaign for staff vaccinations over the coming weeks.

“While every flu season comes with its own challenges, and predicting how severe it will be is very difficult, we are certainly alarmed by what we’ve seen this year in Australia,” said Dr. Ross Moncur, Chief of Staff at ESHC. “We will continue to treat every patient individually, but this will keep influenza top of mind and reinforces the need to make preparations.

We all need to practice our best prevention strategies: get the flu shot, wash your hands and stay home when you’re sick. If we look out for one another throughout the season, we will have the best chance of staying healthy as a whole.”

On Friday, Oct. 4, ESHC will be launching #FluPrevention on social media for the duration of flu season.

The campaign is designed to relate, educate and inform patients of the seriousness of flu season as well as tactics and preventative measures to take. It encourages the public to learn and interact with the hospital.

Health officials have been keeping a close eye on Australia, as the country has experienced an unusually severe flu season with hundreds of deaths linked to the virus, an indicator of what might occur in Canada.

During the 2018-19 flu season in Canada, 34 per cent of adults aged 18-64 and 70 per cent of seniors got the flu shot, according to the Public Health Agency of Canada.

Flu season typically runs from late fall to early spring.

ESHC encourages residents to get their flu shot as soon as possible as it takes two weeks to take effect.

RHINE DANUBE CLUB

Police seeking witness to assault, collision LEAMINGTON – On September 21 at approximately 11:30 p.m., the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) responded to an assault complaint in the 300 block of Mersea Rd. 5.

Police were advised that several All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) were being driven in a farm field, potentially destroying the crops. The complainant, prior to contacting police had approached the ATV operators and asked them to leave but was unsuccessful.

During this exchange, a person was assaulted requiring hospitalization and a motor vehicle was damaged prior to the group of suspects fleeing the area.

FEDERAL ELECTION

Shortly after, one of the involved ATVs may also have been involved in a collision with another motor vehicle in the 400 block of Mersea Rd 5.

The OPP is asking that anyone with information regarding this incident, or anyone who can help identify the involved suspects, contact them at 519-326-2544.

Should you wish to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or leave an anonymous online message at www.catchcrooks.com where you may be eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $2,000.

Memories of...

Kingsville, Leamington and Wheatley

Photo courtesy of Murray Cascadden

Take to the skies With every year that goes by, I find myself becoming more and more ‘old fashioned’.

Sure, I jumped on the Atari bandwagon as a kid in the early 1980s. The mere concept of being able to play video games on your home TV fascinated me. Since then, I’ve become progressively slower to embrace new, cutting-edge technology — CD players, cell phones, social media platforms and as an auto enthusiast, front wheel drive and fuel injection (both of which have been available en masse throughout North America since the mid 1980s).

I still have (and use) a TV with a built in VHS player. I took my eight-year-old for his first ride in my ’69 Cutlass this past summer and he was astonished by the hand-crank windows.

I stumbled across a Facebook post a few months ago (it’s the only social media outlet I can navigate at even the most basic level) that asked the question ‘what should a child need to entertain him/herself’? The term “an imagination” crossed my mind, but the answer provided also made sense — a ball. Whether a kid chooses to throw it, catch it, hit it or kick Bryan Jessop it, the old-as-time-itself device should be able to provide hours of enjoyment.

That’s not to say there aren’t other simple, age-old devices that can put a smile on a kid’s face. This coming weekend will feature the Southpoint International Kite Festival, known in its inaugural year as the Wheatley Wind Festival at the Wheatley Area Arena. The second installment will be held at the Leamington Soccer Complex on Mersea Road 2 (at the Mersea Road 12 intersection).

The first memory I have of kiting was from kindergarten at Wheatley Area Public School in the early autumn of 1979. Each student made his or her own ‘diamond’ or ‘cross frame’ kite. My design, a smattering of orange, purple, red and blue paint, won first prize in the artistic category. Sadly, I couldn’t get the thing to fly to save my life. Others gained enough altitude to turn their creations into small specks in the sky. Not me. My kite wouldn’t soar any higher than I could throw it.

I had better luck with store-bought kites. With one fashioned in a G.I. Joe theme, I was able to unravel the string right down to the spool (careful not to extend the string all the way to the final winding, as the packaging warned that it wasn’t tied down at the end). I’ve read that the ‘average’ kite requires wind speeds of between six to 15 km/hr to take flight.

Essentially, if you can feel the breeze on your face, it should get your lightweight kite into the wild blue yonder.

Flight has fascinated mankind since long before the Wright brothers first took off in “Flyer” in late 1903. My father has been a huge aviation enthusiast since long before I was born and I’ve had a few memorable experiences with manned flight myself. In 2001 (I think), I hopped aboard a WWII Harvard training plane for a test flight as a reporter with The Lakeshore News. I recall humming Iron Maiden’s “Aces High” as we took off. About a year earlier, I found myself leaning over the edge of the cargo ramp of a de Havilland Buffalo at 12,500 feet, linked to a steel beam running through the interior of the fuselage with nothing more than a nylon strap while snapping photos of skydivers for The Tilbury Times.

“This is why birds sing!” one of them shouted to me before leaping from that same ramp.

During a Grade 10 geography class trip to Windsor Airport, I briefly had control of a single-engine Cessna until I started drifting too close to the U.S. side of the Detroit River.

Oops. I had no temptation to try anything stupid during that 30 or so seconds of control. As my dad once said, “there are old pilots and bold pilots, but there are no old, bold pilots.”

Makes sense to me.

Aside from those experiences, a flight to Winnipeg and another to Halifax, I’ve been grounded my entire life. Never bungee jumped, never used a zip line. Therein lies one of the benefits of kite flying — you can walk away from every crash.

LMHS announces 2019 Heritage Ambassador Award winner

By C. Scott Holland

LEAMINGTON – The Leamington & Mersea Historical Society has announced the winner of its 2019 Heritage Ambassador Award. The honour this year reflects a deep commitment to giving back to the community both as a volunteer and an organizer and it is bestowed upon John Pavao.

John’s father immigrated to Canada three years before John, his mother and six siblings.

John attended St. Michael’s and then St. Louis schools in Leamington and often worked with his father picking tomatoes and beans, plus occasionally John Pavao driving the tractor.

In 2001, along with four other citizens, he helped initiate the Sun Parlour Rodeo. Within a few years he took over managing the annual event individually and procuring sponsorships. Additional help was supplied by his own family and before long he had a number of other people aid him, including Nelson Carvalho.

The idea for the rodeo was spawned by the fact that throughout his life John has always had ponies and realized that he could draw people together via a rodeo. From its beginnings 18 years ago to present, the Sun Parlour Rodeo has been one of the most important local events held every summer. Its enormous success has raised more than $400,000 for local charities. All monies raised stay within Windsor-Essex County and have supported causes such as Erie Shores HealthCare, Erie Shores Hospice and W.E. Care For Kids.

John Pavao was also named the 2018 Alf Bennie Award winner for volunteerism and making a difference in the community at the Leamington & District Chamber of Commerce’s 24th Annual Business Excellence Awards last year.

John admits his wife complains about him not being home much, yet he is not involved in sporting events and doesn’t watch much TV. Instead, he’d rather be outdoors keeping busy.

Such dedication to a single cause and local charities is a blessing for the Leamington community and his constant work and effort is reaping rewards for us all.

The Leamington & Mersea Historical Society will hold its 22nd annual Heritage Awards on Friday, Nov. 1 at the Leamington Roma Club Pavilion. Doors open at 6 p.m. and dinner is at 6:30. Tickets are $35 per person and can be purchased in advance from LHS members or by contacting Paul Bunnett-Jones at 519-326-1691 or pbunnettjones@ cogeco.ca Others being honored with the 2019 Heritage Awards are the Virginio (Frank) and Amelia Ricci family, the late Antonio Zompanti, John Woelk and Thrift On Mill.

Paper airplane fun at Leamington Library

Registered youths for “Experimental PA Day” at the Leaminbton branch of the Essex County Public Library put their paper airplanes to the test along with resource assistant Laura Wilkinson in the activity room Friday, Sept. 20. There, youths six to 12 years of age were introduced to science experiments using household items such as water, vinegar, baking soda, paper, lemon juice, salt and vegetable oil. Afterwards, participants, who registered online through www.essexcountylibrary.ca, were given instructions on experiments that can be carried out at home.

Break and enter on Talbot Trail WHEATLEY – On Friday, Sept. 27, Chatham-Kent Police Service responded to a break and enter at a residence on Talbot Trail in Romney Township near Wheatley.

A shed was entered on the property and various tools were taken.

There are currently no suspects. Anyone with information regarding this incident are encouraged to contact Constable Ken Muir at kenm@chatham-kent.ca or 519436-6600 ext. 87002. Anonymous callers may call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) and may be eligible for a cash reward.

Council turns down flag raisings, proclamations

LEAMINGTON – When it comes to publically supporting various organizations and events, the Municipality of Leamington had decided to err on the side of caution.

made during the September 10 meeting, administration presented to council options regarding the decision to either support or deny proclamations and flag raisings on municipal property.

After the second round of in-depth deliberation during its Tuesday, Sept. 24 meeting, council voted 5-2 in favour of rejecting proclamations and flag raisings, essentially keeping Policy M01 intact.

While some members of council echoed sentiments from the September 10 meeting, others reconsidered their original stances on the two issues.

“I don’t want to put ourselves in a position where we could create controversy,” said Mayor Hilda MacDonald, who explained that she changed her mind since vocally supporting proclamations and flag raisings two weeks earlier. “I don’t want this to be a hill to die on.”

MacDonald explained that her shift on the stance

of Policy M01 stemmed largely from looking into the controversy the public support of certain organizations and events has caused in the city of Ottawa, which supports both proclamations and flag raisings. The choice to reject both means of public support was presented to council as “Option 2,” while Option 1 was based on approving both methods of endorsement providing that the organization be locally based, the cause promote inclusivity and the cause promote the furthering of a sense of community.

“I don’t want this to be a hill to die on.”

— Hilda MacDonald

“I appreciate all input from council and respect everyone’s view on this, but

I would still take a chance with Option 1,” Councillor Tim Wilkinson said prior to the vote. “The benefits would outweigh the negatives.”

The report noted that Option 1 would have brought with it a financial impact based largely on time and resources staff would have required to review and respond to proclamation or flag raising requests. Costs would also have been associated with the installation of a new community flag pole as well as staff time to raise, lower and maintain flags.

The interest in avoiding controversy, however, stood as the main motivator behind Option 2’s support.

“I think the easy way is the best way at this time,” said Councillor Bill Dunn, who also inquired about the possibility of hoisting flags that represent the community itself. “We have enough controversial issues to vote on with our own residents.”

Wheatley school hosts Terry Fox Run

By Bryan Jessop

WHEATLEY – Nearly four decades after one of Canada’s most inspirational citizens launched the Marathon of Hope, Wheatley Area Public School showed its continual support for the same cause.

Thursday, Sept. 26 marked the most recent edition of the WAPS Terry Fox Run, where the student body of 160 youths of all grades walked, jogged and ran up and down Omstead Drive between Wheatley Area Arena and the school.

The fundraising component of the event was again presented as “Toonies For Terry,” where students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8 were encouraged to make $2 donations towards the Terry Fox Foundation.

This year’s one-hour walk was preceded by a brief assembly in the school’s gymnasium, where students watched a brief documentary on Fox’s Marathon of Hope that took him from the East Coast to the Thunder Bay area for a distance of about 5,400 km before he was “They’re all hospitalized. doing really good.

Fox, who died of canEveryone’s been cer June 28, 1981, set really excited out to raise $1 million about it.” through his journey.

To date, the worldwide — Jillian total has surpassed the Loveless $500 million mark.

Staff and students also sang “La Perseverance” by Gregg Lerock before heading outdoors for the run, where cloudy skies soon gave way to sunshine.

Members of Student Council, who organized the event, were stationed at both ends of the course to mark participants with the number of lap each runner and walker completed. Those totals were equal to the number of tickets students could enter into a draw for a free Terry Fox t-shirt donated by the Terry Fox Foundation.

In preparation for the run, some students took part in cross-country running during recesses. Some were able to cover three kilometres in the 15-minute time frames. For the Terry Fox Run, several jog a minimum of 5 km while others have completed a distance of up to 15 km.

Signs and superheroes were common sights for the annual Wheatley Area Public School Terry Fox Run on Omstead Drive Thursday, Sept. 26.

The event was organized by members of Student Council and again featured the “Toonies For Terry” fundraiser in support of the Terry Fox Foundation.

“They’re all doing really good,” said WAPS Student Council class representative Jillian Loveless. “Everyone’s been really excited about it.”

Student Council, led by Prime Minister Nathan Ribble, Deputy Prime Minister Mariah Jessee, social chairperson Avery Hopper and others, began organizing this year’s run about a week prior to the event. Donations from fellow students were first accepted during the opening week of the 2019-’20 school year.

“They’ve been pretty generous,” said Jessee.

“We don’t have quite as much money as last year, but we’re pretty close.

This year’s WAPS Terry Fox event raised a sum of $210 as of the day of the annual run.

The province-wide occasion is recognized by the local French Catholic school each year and for 2019 was greeted by favourable weather that allowed ceremonies to take place outdoors.

Shoreline repair contract approved

By Bryan Jessop

Froesey’s 2nd Annual Show and Shine Rows of vehicles from classics to customs and tuners to trucks lined the back property of the Leamington Lebanese Club for the second annual Froesey’s Show and Shine Sunday, Sept. 22.

The event is held in honour of Brandon Froese, who along with Miranda Brown died in a car crash in September of 2017. For the second consecutive year, the event served as a fundraiser for Ronald McDonald House. The 2019 edition of the show, organized by Chris Froese along with a crew of volunteers, drew about 250 custom and classic cars and trucks of all makes and models as well as about a dozen motorcycles. Last year’s event drew about 180 vehicles. More than $5,300 for Ronald McDonald House was raised by $10 admission per vehicle and a series of raffle prizes. The show featured numerous prizes for different categories as well as a burnout competition.

“I don’t know if I’d want to go with that drastic a resort, not knowing what the lake is going to do,” Del Brocco explained. “What we’re trying to do right now is short term.”

Currently, the plan for reinforcing shoreline protection for all five areas calls for the work to be done in the fall of this year. Del Brocco, however, noted that each of the 13 contractors who initially replied to the tender for the contract stated that there is currently a shortage of available armour stone. In the event that materials have to be shipped in from resources in areas like Orillia, charges may increase.

In the event that the five targeted areas must be fortified one at a time, each will be studied further during periods of calm weather to determine which locations are in greatest need of repairs.

Ryan Najim of the Cougars makes a tackle during the first quarter of a WECSSAA senior football game at Cardinal Carter Thursday, Sept. 26. Cardinal Carter fell to 0-2 with a 24-0 loss. The Cougars’ next home game will be Thursday, Oct. 10 at 3 p.m. against the General Amherst Bulldogs.

Senior Cougars blanked by Sabres

By Bryan Jessop

Cardinal Carter’s senior football team started the 2019 WECSSAA season with what was possibly the county’s toughest first two games.

As the only 1A school in the Tier 1 Conference, the Cougars started the road half of their season against the 3A Holy Names Knights and then came back to Cardinal Carter for a home opener against the 3A Sandwich Sabres. The Cougars dropped the Thursday, Sept.

19 road game 33-0 and the Thursday, Sept. 26 home contest 24-0. Both opponents have been ranked in WECSSAA’s overall Top Four among 16 teams, along with the Tier I East Division’s Kennedy Clippers and Herman Green Griffins.

Despite the two shutout losses, Cardinal Carter coach Chris Church, who is also on the school’s junior team bench staff, wasn’t disappointed with the team’s first two performances.

“Our defense looked pretty strong — I’m proud of how they played,” he said following the home field loss against Sandwich.

“How we’ve played so far

is hard to gauge — Holy Names played two exhibition games in the U.S. and they could be the best in the province. We had some offensive problems, but we’ll get them sorted out. We’ve got to go to a spread situation.”

“Our defense looked pretty strong — I’m proud of how they played.”

— Chris Church

In last week’s home opener, both the Cougars and Sabres struggled to move the ball offensively on their first two possessions. Pushed to within their own 10 yard line, the home team’s offense took a knee in their own end zone to concede a two-point safety to earn a kickoff at their 35 yard line.

Marcus Dorcely pounced on the kick to give Cardinal Carter possession, from where a successful throw by quarterback Paul Sleiman put the Cougars on the

Sandwich 11 yard line by the end of the quarter.

To start the second quarter, Cardinal Carter advanced as far as the Sabres’ six yard line before a penalty on the play reset the ball at the 21. A Sandwich penalty brought the ball as close as the defending team’s five yard line, but the Cougars triggered another flag that brought the ball another 10 yards outward. The Sabres took possession of the ball by snagging an interception inside their own end zone.

Late in the half, the visitors drove through the defensive line on a one-yard drive to bring the score to 8-0. The PAT attempt was unsuccessful.

Sandwich tried to add to its lead in the dying seconds, but a Josh Saad interception kept the score as is for the halftime break.

A 45-yard touchdown sprint in the third brought the Sabres to a 15-0 lead before the hosts conceded another safety later in the quarter. Scoring ended in the fourth with a 14-yard touchdown pass for Sandwich with PAT. The senior Cougars will next hit the road Thursday,

LDSS Junior Boys volleyball vs. Lajeunesse The Lions’ Landen Wiebe leaps from the court’s surface to line up a spike towards the Lajeunesse side of the net during the WECSSAA Tier I junior boys’ volleyball season opener at LDSS Tuesday, Sept. 24. The visiting Royals won the first set 25-22, but the hosts responded with wins of 25-18 and 25-20 to capture the victory. Afterwards, the LDSS seniors also defeated Lajeunesse 2-1, starting with 25-16 and 25-21 wins before being dealt a 25-22 loss.

On Thursday, Sept. 26, the junior and senior Lions travelled to Massey to face the Mustangs.

The LDSS juniors won 2-1 with scores of 12-25, 25-21 and 25-21 while the senior Lions were swept 25-13, 25-21 and 25-21.

Final scramble of season for Talbot Trail seniors golfers

By Bob McLean

On Tuesday, September 24, the Talbot Trail senior golf league had 73 seniors participating in the final scramble of the 2019 season. The superb weather and course conditions likely helped contribute to the excellent team scores.

A seven under score was shot by T1G4 - Rick Thompson, Joe Vrtel, Carl Robinson and Gerry Van Deven. Second place was tied with terrific 30s. T3G1 placed second by a low card selection - Walter Balsam, Larry Hyatt, Tim Stevenson, Ed Fraser and Paul J. Brown. Third place winners, also shooting 30, was T8G2 - Bob Scott, Gerry Becigneul, Len Snively, Pat Amicone and Dutchy. Three teams tied with 31s- T1G1, T8G1 and T8G3. Golf balls were handed out to all the winning teams.

Arkey won the closest to the pin on #7 for T8G3. Rick Thompson’s scintillating shot to within 44 inches of the pin on #9 won for T1G4. Colasanti pro Bill Ward drained an amazing 33-foot putt on #2 to win the long putt for T5G1. Arkey, BW and Rick each received a sleeve of balls. Gift cards for $10 were handed out to all the above group members.

The members always enjoy joke time and on Tuesday Ken Womack and Wayne Humber shared some funny jokes.

Thank you to the league members for their generous tip money.

Everyone seemed to enjoy the various draws. Two lucky guys received $85 Talbot Trail gift cards. There were also draw winners for $30, $25, $20 and $15. Erle Nash went away with a new TT hat!

Special thanks are extended to George Christiansen for keeping the carts in top working order all season. Derek, Robert, Phil and Lloyd did a fantastic job on the outside work throughout 2019. Caleb, the pro shop manager, has been a big help to the league and myself this season. His various friendly helpers, such as Miranda, did a fantastic job. League members thank the many different members who barbecued each week. On scramble days, Tom Dunn continued to share his terrific barbecuing skills.

Bummy, Wiz and Bobo thank Dave Dent, Paul Harrison, Paul Brown, Steve Longeway, Shannon and everyone who assisted them during the year.

Special thoughts are extended to Murray Knox and all other past and present participants who are presently under the weather.

Bobo will try to arrange a final excursion.

Thank you to all the wonderful league members for their participation in the seniors league.

Notice of Complete Applications and Notice of Public Meeting to consider Official Plan No. 6 and Zoning By-law Amendment ZBA No. 109 4 and 6 Ivan Street, 9 and 13 Foundry Street and 108 Erie St. N.

Take notice that the Council of the Corporation of the Municipality of Leamington has received complete applications for an official plan amendment and zoning by-law amendment to be considered in accordance with the provisions of Sections 22 and 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990.

Public Meeting Information A public meeting for consideration of Official Plan Amendment No. 6 and Zoning Bylaw Amendment ZBA No. 109 is scheduled for Tuesday, October 22nd at 6:00 pm in the Council Chambers at the Municipal Building, 111 Erie Street North. Any person may attend the public meeting and make oral submissions and/or make written submissions either in support or opposition of the proposed official plan and zoning by-law amendments. . If you are an owner of property containing seven (7) or more residential units, you are requested to post this notice in a location visible to all residents.

Purpose and Effect of the Applications Official plan and zoning by-law amendment applications have been submitted which impact lands currently used as part of the existing Leamington Chevrolet Buick GMC Dealership, including 4 and 6 Ivan Street, 9 and 13 Foundry Street and 108 Erie Street North. A key map is attached indicating the location of the lands which are subject to the applications.

Sharks veteran forward Alixe Saliba takes on Petrolia’s Eric Marsh and Curtis Helps in a battle for possession of the puck during the first period of a Stobbs Division game at Wheatley Area Arena Wednesday, Sept. 25. Despite being outshot by nearly a two-to-one margin, the Flyers posted a 4-2 win. Saliba had a goal and an assist in the loss.

The Flyers trailed 4-2 with less than three minutes left in regulation, but mounted a late game comeback to win 5-4 in overtime and keep their undefeated home ice record intact.

Flyers mount comeback versus Vipers

By Bryan Jessop

A never say die attitude has allowed the Leamington Flyers to preserve their undefeated home ice record.

After trailing the LaSalle Vipers 4-2 with less than three minutes left in the third, the Flyers rallied to tie the contest and then win in the dying seconds of the first overtime to notch a 5-4 victory. The win vaulted Leamington into first in the West while earning some redemption after a 3-2 loss in LaSalle from eight days earlier.

The teams marched into the dressing rooms with a 1-1 stalemate after 20 minutes.

Dylan Montie opened the scoring by sliding through multiple LaSalle defenders before tucking an ice level shot past Sami Molu and over the goal line. The visitors evened the score less than six minutes later when Ray Hamlin set loose a knee-high wrist shot that beat Matthew Waite to the short side.

Cayden Faust put the guests ahead with a release from the slot in the second stanza.

Leamington had a chance to tie the game with less than 20 seconds remaining, but instead went down by two. Wyatt O’Neil was granted a penalty shot after a LaSalle defenseman put a hand on the puck in his own crease, but Molu stuck the left pad out to stop the veteran forward. The Vipers were quick to clear their zone after the ensuing faceoff and during a two-on-one rush, Stephane Crevier one-timed a shot into the mesh with 1.8 seconds showing on the clock.

Just over five minutes into the third, Dylan Weston pulled the Flyers to within one with his seventh goal of the past three games. Isaac Good, however, brought the Vipers back into a two-goal lead less than three minutes later with a backhand shot after a forward pass left him alone with Waite.

Fetter brought the home team back to within a goal during a power play, taking hold of his own rebound during a rush at the net before planting a second shot behind Molu.

Leamington’s bench pulled Waite for the sixth skater with about a minute-and-a-half on the clock and with 49 seconds to go, Fetter struck again with a shot into the high right side to even the score.

“It’s a great feeling to come back from behind like that for a win, especially against a rival team,” McKibbon explained after his three-point night. “I saw a bit of net from behind a screen and went for it. I didn’t know it went in until after I heard the horn. It’s been a while since I scored a game winner, so it’s a nice feeling — especially in overtime.”

On Friday, Sept. 27, the Flyers visited the undefeated St. Marys Lincolns, where they won in a double overtime score of 1-0. With just over a minute to go in three-on-three extra minutes, Nicholas Beneteau potted the game’s only goal with an assist going to Josh King.

Wheatley Sharks doubled by Petrolia

By Bryan Jessop

Running into a sturdy goalkeeper and the inability to cash in on chances have put the Wheatley Omstead Sharks below the .500 mark for the first time this season.

The Sharks hosted the Petrolia Flyers for Wheatley Area Minor Soccer Night Wednesday, Sept. 25 and came up short in a final score of 4-2. The loss was Wheatley’s second in a row, following a 2-1 defeat in Wallaceburg at the hands of the Thunderhawks four days earlier.

The Sharks found their grove a couple minutes into the opening period of their second home game, but struggled to solve Flyer netminder Tyler Richardson.

Wheatley faltered early on special teams, as it came up empty handed on its first power play and surrendered a goal to Kyle Flammino on Petrolia’s first man advantage. After Flammino went ice level into the left side, a sharp-angle shot into the opposite end of the net by Lucas Ross — with the teams playing four on four — put the Flyers up 2-0.

Jordan Paquette cut the lead in half for the Sharks by burying a rebound into the high left side after Richardson stopped a Drew Denomey shot. Veteran Alixe Saliba drew the second assist on the goal, scored 20 seconds after the Ross marker.

The home team continued to struggle on the penalty kill, as Clay Dolbear made it 3-1 on another Petrolia power play for the only tally of the second stanza.

make things difficult.”

Carnevale noted that his team experienced a similar problem in the previous Saturday’s 2-1 loss in Wallaceburg.

“We’ve had all kinds of opportunities, but we’re not finishing on the Grade A chances. We’re making the other goalie’s life a lot easier than it should be.”

As Wheatley’s bench staff has signed the limit of 23 player cards, Carnevale noted that all future transactions will be “one in, one out” scenarios.

The Sharks took to the road for their second away game Saturday, Sept. 28 against the Mooretown Flags. The hosts defeated the Wheatley squad 5-2, with Sharks’ goals being scored by Brett Enns and Lucas Poisson.

Wheatley’s next home game will be Wednesday, Oct. 2 at 7:30 p.m. against the Essex 73’s.

The guest team’s Matt Hunt buried the first five-on-five marker of the night less than 80 seconds into the third.

Saliba came up with Wheatley’s second man advantage goal of the night at midperiod, assisted by Paquette and Denomey.

The Sharks’ offense continued to push as the period wore on, but Richardson continued to stand tall in the Flyers net. Wheatley peppered the guests’ netminder with a sum of 52 shots, but couldn’t solve him a third time. Jackson Ford stopped 25 of 27 in the Wheatley net. The Flyers were two for four on the man advantage while the hosts settled on two for six.

“We had a lot of shots, but no traffic in front of their net,” explained Sharks’ head coach Josh Carnevale.

“He (Richardson) could see everything because we had no bodies in front of him to

Southpoint Sun - 23

Atom Minors win hard-fought victory The Southpoint Point Pelee Karting Minor Atom Capitals hit the road this past Saturday afternoon, Sept. 28, for a game against the Windsor Junior Spitfires. With both teams coming into the game unbeaten so far in their Bluewater League action, the Caps knew they would have to bring their ‘A’ game to bring home the win.

Right from the opening face off, it was apparent that neither side wanted to lose. Both teams traded glorious scoring chances with their speed and skill in this very entertaining match.

Finally, after two scoreless periods, the Capitals were able to get on the board. Jonathan Recker, from down low, found an open Ben Liebrock in the high slot. Liebrock rifled his shot towards the net where the Spitfires’ own defenseman deflected it past his outstretched goalie.

Each side continued to battle, trading chances right until the final buzzer, but it ended that way as a hard-fought 1-0 victory.

Karly Franklin stood tall in net making some huge saves to preserve her shutout and the win for the Capitals.

Dale Lesperance with his low and level ’47 Ford coupe.

1947 Ford coupe sits just right When I first saw the 1947 Ford coupe that Dale Lesperance of LaSalle brought to the 3rd Annual All-Ford Car Show at the historic Essex Railway Station on Friday, June 7, I was immediately reminded of my first car purchased 60 years earlier minus one day.

THE It was a customized 1940 Mercury convertible and it OLD CAR sat low and level, just like Dale’s ’47 coupe. A previDETECTIVE ous owner had installed a dropped front axle and lowBill Sherk ered the rear to match. Like Dale’s coupe, it looked just right!

Dale’s ’47 Ford is a very nice blend of old and new, and of original and modified. The hood ornament has been shaved off but the trunk handle is still on the trunk lid. Inside is a steering wheel from a ’79 Mercury Versailles but the original dashboard is still there and looks good.

And the interior seats are from an ’86 Ford Aerostar but they look just as comfortable as the original ones.

Under the hood is a 302 Ford V8 from an ’88 Mustang. The front end is from a Mustang II, and parallel leaf springs ride with a 9-inch Ford rear end for modern performance and handling.

The trunk lid trim is a carryover from ’46, indicating that Dale’s car is an early ’47. Henry Ford hated throwing anything away, and if trim pieces were left over from the ’46 production run, stick them on the ’47s ‘til they are all used up!

The bumpers are stock and the rear bumper looks particularly nice with the Ford script in red right in the middle.

Dale has owned the car for about 15 years. It was dark blue when he bought it and now is a very pleasing Emerald Green. It also has the eye-level brake light in the rear window and seat belts, two things unheard of in ’47.

He has travelled to many cruise nights and car shows, including the Pumpkinfest in Port Elgin and the Old Autos show every August in Bothwell.

Here’s wishing for Dale another 15 years of happy motoring with his cool ’47 Ford coupe.

The Predators visited the Kingsville Arena Complex Sunday, Sept. 29 and despite a 2-0 Toronto lead that stood beyond the game’s midway mark, the Kings bounced back for a 4-3 regulation victory. Daniel Kazak put the guests up 1-0 in a shorthanded effort before Jeremy Marsh took advantage of a Predators’ power play to bring the visitors up 2-0.

Dexter Gourlay of the Kings was the next to cash in on a man advantage opportunity, with about seven-and-a-half minutes to go in the second. Richard Boruta evened the score three minutes and 18 seconds later with the contest’s first five-on-five tally. The power play again became a factor in the third, starting with a Kings’ go-ahead marker

by Pavel Svoboda, unassisted. Julian Presutti tied the score for Toronto with a man advantage goal just over a minute later.

Kingsville resident Zachary Dillen sunk the game winner at the 7:27 mark to improve the Kings’ record to 5-1-0-1.

Jason Pacheco stopped 56 of 60 shots for the Predators while Toni Koskinen steered aside 21 of 24 for the Kingsville victory. The two-point afternoon brought the Kings to within a point of the South Division leading North York squad.

At 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 5, the Kings will visit the Windsor Aces. One day later at 3 p.m., Kingsville will host Windsor.

PICK UP YOUR TITO

LORELEI

7 year old – Male Rottweiler mix. Hey friend, I’m Tito. I’m a big of an older guy but still have energy to burn!! My age may show a little bit in my personality as I can be a bit of a free-spirit. I mean don’t get me wrong, I do enjoy the attention of humans, but I may also want to do my own thing at times and I hope that’s okay with you. I mean, there is just so much to see in this world and I want to see it all! My 2 favourite things are going for walks, and playing a great game of fetch!! I hope you have some good toys for me at home! Anyways, I think that’s enough about me! I’m eager to see what you’re all about!

2 years old. Lorelei will work her magic as soon as you meet her. If her chirps, leg weaves, hugs and kisses don’t do it, her gaming skills definitely will. She carries her toy mouse across the room and will hurdle chair rungs or wrap herself around them as she plays “extreme cat and mouse.” Small toy balls go flying too--she could easily land a place on a ninja warrior team! You’ll be under her spell in no time...as long as she can be your one-and-only.

She is not fond of other cats so will do best as an only cat.
